Reduced Engine Power Light
When I restarted my 2008 Sky Red Line last night after I unloaded it, it was difficult to start and the reduced engine power light came on. After that, the engine light remained on steady but the reduced power message light was gone. Will it hurt it to drive it someplace to get it checked? Has any damage been done?
